Plagiarism & AI Abuse Policy
Authors are not permitted to employ bots or other forms of artificial intelligence while creating content. If bots, artificial intelligence, or other sources are utilized for a phrase/idea, proper acknowledgment must be given to the exact source, otherwise it may be considered plagiarism or copyright infringement.
Authors are only allowed to reference material from other sources, bots, and artificial intelligence up to 20% of the time, and if they are discovered to be copying content from such sources more than 20% of the time, they will be requested to modify the article. If the author fails to rectify the content, action (as deemed appropriate) will be taken against them, which might also result in rejection of the said article.
If an author is found to be copying content from bots, artificial intelligence of any kind or any other source (online or offline), they shall face the following consequences:
- First time: If an author is found to be copying content from other sources or using bots/AI for generating content for the first time, the said article shall not be published and no remunerations shall be given for the same. The author shall be informed of the reason their article was rejected.
- Second time: If an author is found to be copying content from elsewhere or using bots/AI for generating content the second time, the article shall not be considered, no remuneration shall be given and a warning will be issued.
- Third time: If an author is caught copying content from elsewhere for the third time, the work will not be published and the author’s contract will be terminated.
If an author is found to have copied an article retrospectively, following actions shall be taken:
- If one article is found to be plagiarized retrospectively or it is found that the author used bots/AI of any kind, the article shall be deleted and payment for the same shall be adjusted in future payments.
- If two articles are found to be plagiarized retrospectively or it is found that the author used bots/AI of any kind, the articles shall be deleted and payment for the same shall be adjusted in future payments.
- If three or more articles are discovered to be retrospectively plagiarized, or if the author used bots/AI of any type, the articles will be removed, and the author’s contract will be reviewed. Payment will be adjusted accordingly, either by the author or in the current payment cycle.
Therefore we believe you will comply with the above-said points to attribute the content in the right spirit.
